Notes

  • You can store this unbaked in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and then bake when needed.
  • The baked oatmeal can be stored in a closed container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • To reheat you can microwave it or put it in the oven for 10 mins or so.
  • You can use sub the oats for other grain flakes such as quinoa flakes or rice flakes.
  • To double the recipe you can double everything, if it seems like there’s too much liquid just add a few more Tbsp of oats and bake in a slightly larger pan for up to 45 mins or until the apples are done to preference.
  • It's best to use a stoneware or ceramic baking dish so that the edges don’t get brown and chewy.
